GEOL1401 Research Paper Instructions

The purpose of this paper is to analyze four (4) instructor provided articles that represent the argument of both sides of the dispute over whether the process of hydraulic fracturing is responsible for the increased number of earthquakes occurring in the United States, including Texas.
Below are the steps required to complete the research project/paper, as well as detailed instructors of what to write about within your individual paper.
Steps to complete the hydraulic fracturing research project:

STEP 1: Read these instructions thoroughly and watch the following WFAA-TV video about hydraulic fracturing (fracking):

 ‘Let’s #VerifyThis! Does fracking cause earthquakes?

STEP 2: Discussion Board (15 points)

Every student in class has been assigned to one (1) of 2 discussion boards.  Either the ‘hydraulic fracturing IS NOT responsible for causing earthquakes’, or ‘hydraulic fracturing IS responsible for causing earthquakes’ board.  It is the responsibility of each student to scroll through all the forums in their assigned board and choose ONE of the articles posted to write a synopsis of their chosen article and explain how the article might be a good source for their paper.
The purpose of the discussion board is for each student to share with the class a synopsis (short summary) of their chosen article.  Later on in this project, students will be selecting 2 articles from each discussion board and the synopses should help students decide which articles to use for the research paper.
It is very important that every student does their part on the discussion board.
To complete this part of the project: You can get to the 2 Discussion Board links by either clicking on the “Discussion Board” link (under “Course Work” on left-hand side of eCampus course page and then scrolling down to the two fracking discussion boards) OR within the “Research Paper” link (under “Course Work” on left-hand side of eCampus course page and then scrolling down to the two fracking discussion boards).

  • Scroll down and read the titles of each article in the threads
  • Choose one to read and summarize (first come, first served), click on the article title to open the “thread” or article and click on the link, then click “Reply” and write the following in the “Message” area:
    • Summarize the article in two paragraphs- 4-5 sentences per paragraph.
      • Paragraph 1: A synopsis of the article
      • Paragraph 2: Explain how the article might be a good source for the essay portion of the project.

 
STEP 3: Discussion Board Comments to other students (5 points)

  • Read through the summaries written by the other students in your assigned discussion board and make comments on a least 5 other summaries-
    • Remarks might include specific questions asking for clarification, a request for more details, or perhaps an observation.  All comments should be positive, constructive, and polite.

 
IMPORTANT: PLEASE KEEP THE FOLLOWING IN MIND WHILE COMPLETING THIS ASSIGNMENT- part of the research paper consists of an assessment of how well you and your team members worked together in the forum according to the five (5) categories below:

  • Contributes to the discussion: Did the students in your assigned discussion board all contribute a synopsis? Did everyone contribute to the discussion comments?
  • Group Encouragement: Did you notice any students encouraging others to contribute to the discussions?
  • Deadlines: Did everyone seem to post their synopsis and add to the comments by the assigned deadlines? Did you notice any posts encouraging and motivating everyone to get the work done on time?
  • Communication: How did your group seem to do as far as treating each other respectfully by being polite and constructive in communication.
  • Conflict: If conflict arose within the discussion, did anyone respond to the conflict? Did they help to manage/resolve it in a way so that the work of the group could be completed peaceably and well?

 

STEP 4: Read Through the Sources and Write Your Paper (80 points)

Read through all the threads for both ‘hydraulic fracturing IS NOT responsible for causing earthquakes’, and ‘hydraulic fracturing IS responsible for causing earthquakes’ discussion board forums.
 
Select 2 articles from each forum for a total of 4 articles (2 articles from the IS NOT, 2 from the IS).
 
You will use the information in these articles to help write the research paper. Click on the Word doc (or URL link of the article if there is one associated with it, as not all have URL links) link and read the full article. It is OK if one of the articles you choose is your own.  It is also OK to choose more than 2 articles from each forum.  Please do not choose sources not listed in the discussion boards or you will have points deducted. There are plenty of good articles to choose from!
 

To begin writing your paper:

  • Scroll down to the last assignment link in the “Research Paper” link (under “Course Work” in our eCampus course). Click on the attached file: “APA Template for GEOL 1401 Research Paper” and download the file.

 

  • Besides downloading the APA template, when writing your paper, download this document again, as it will be necessary to have it open as it has detailed directions that accompany the template so you will know what to write about in each section.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze four (4) instructor provided articles that represent the argument of both sides of the dispute over whether the process of hydraulic fracturing is responsible for the increased number of earthquakes occurring in the United States, including Texas.
Below are the steps required to complete the research project/paper, as well as detailed instructors of what to write about within your individual paper.
Steps to complete the hydraulic fracturing research project:

STEP 1: Read these instructions thoroughly and watch the following WFAA-TV video about hydraulic fracturing (fracking):

 ‘Let’s #VerifyThis! Does fracking cause earthquakes?

STEP 2: Discussion Board (15 points)

Every student in class has been assigned to one (1) of 2 discussion boards.  Either the ‘hydraulic fracturing IS NOT responsible for causing earthquakes’, or ‘hydraulic fracturing IS responsible for causing earthquakes’ board.  It is the responsibility of each student to scroll through all the forums in their assigned board and choose ONE of the articles posted to write a synopsis of their chosen article and explain how the article might be a good source for their paper.
The purpose of the discussion board is for each student to share with the class a synopsis (short summary) of their chosen article.  Later on in this project, students will be selecting 2 articles from each discussion board and the synopses should help students decide which articles to use for the research paper.
It is very important that every student does their part on the discussion board.
To complete this part of the project: You can get to the 2 Discussion Board links by either clicking on the “Discussion Board” link (under “Course Work” on left-hand side of eCampus course page and then scrolling down to the two fracking discussion boards) OR within the “Research Paper” link (under “Course Work” on left-hand side of eCampus course page and then scrolling down to the two fracking discussion boards).

  • Scroll down and read the titles of each article in the threads
  • Choose one to read and summarize (first come, first served), click on the article title to open the “thread” or article and click on the link, then click “Reply” and write the following in the “Message” area:
    • Summarize the article in two paragraphs- 4-5 sentences per paragraph.
      • Paragraph 1: A synopsis of the article
      • Paragraph 2: Explain how the article might be a good source for the essay portion of the project.

 
STEP 3: Discussion Board Comments to other students (5 points)

  • Read through the summaries written by the other students in your assigned discussion board and make comments on a least 5 other summaries-
    • Remarks might include specific questions asking for clarification, a request for more details, or perhaps an observation.  All comments should be positive, constructive, and polite.

 
IMPORTANT: PLEASE KEEP THE FOLLOWING IN MIND WHILE COMPLETING THIS ASSIGNMENT- part of the research paper consists of an assessment of how well you and your team members worked together in the forum according to the five (5) categories below:

  • Contributes to the discussion: Did the students in your assigned discussion board all contribute a synopsis? Did everyone contribute to the discussion comments?
  • Group Encouragement: Did you notice any students encouraging others to contribute to the discussions?
  • Deadlines: Did everyone seem to post their synopsis and add to the comments by the assigned deadlines? Did you notice any posts encouraging and motivating everyone to get the work done on time?
  • Communication: How did your group seem to do as far as treating each other respectfully by being polite and constructive in communication.
  • Conflict: If conflict arose within the discussion, did anyone respond to the conflict? Did they help to manage/resolve it in a way so that the work of the group could be completed peaceably and well?

 

STEP 4: Read Through the Sources and Write Your Paper (80 points)

Read through all the threads for both ‘hydraulic fracturing IS NOT responsible for causing earthquakes’, and ‘hydraulic fracturing IS responsible for causing earthquakes’ discussion board forums.
 
Select 2 articles from each forum for a total of 4 articles (2 articles from the IS NOT, 2 from the IS).
 
You will use the information in these articles to help write the research paper. Click on the Word doc (or URL link of the article if there is one associated with it, as not all have URL links) link and read the full article. It is OK if one of the articles you choose is your own.  It is also OK to choose more than 2 articles from each forum.  Please do not choose sources not listed in the discussion boards or you will have points deducted. There are plenty of good articles to choose from!
 

To begin writing your paper:

  • Scroll down to the last assignment link in the “Research Paper” link (under “Course Work” in our eCampus course). Click on the attached file: “APA Template for GEOL 1401 Research Paper” and download the file.

 

  • Besides downloading the APA template, when writing your paper, download this document again, as it will be necessary to have it open as it has detailed directions that accompany the template so you will know what to write about in each section.
